FAQs
What tools do I need?
You may need a wire stripper and a screwdriver to tighten the terminal screws. No special tools are required.
Can I use this coupler outdoors?
While the coupler is sealed, it's best to protect it from direct exposure to the elements to ensure longevity. Consider using a weatherproof enclosure if it's outdoors.
How do I ensure a good connection?
Make sure to strip the correct amount of insulation to provide sufficient contact with the center conductor. Tighten the screws securely, but do not overtighten.
What type of coax cable can I use?
You can use most standard coaxial cables up to 9mm in diameter. Check the cable's specifications if you are unsure.
What is the plastic outer case made of?
The plastic outer case is made of a durable material designed to protect the internal connections.
Troubleshooting
Weak or no signal.
Check the connections at the coupler. Ensure the wires are securely fastened and that there is no loose connection. Also, make sure that the cable ends have been properly stripped.
Cable doesn't fit.
Verify that the cable diameter is within the 9mm limit. If your cable is too large, the coupler may not work.
